YouTube Can Be Good – 2/28

Here is a fascinating piece on a comic from 1964 about the first black President, which the comic predicted could happen in 1976!!

Please excuse the cheesy music.

I don’t normally enjoy making fun of old cartoons, because it seems kinda mean, as you can’t really hold them to the same standards of today.

That said, since the following was intentional, it’s okay to laugh at it…

In an attempt to put out an oil fire (I presume it is an oil fire), Aquaman floods all the coasts in the Western Hemisphere!! It’s all a plot by the Legion of Doom, but the idea that they knew Aquaman would be dumb enough to fall for it…well, that speaks volumes about Aquaman’s capabilities (or lack thereof).

Finally, here is a video clip from Showtime’s This American Life (the TV version of the acclaimed radio program).

I reviewed the episode here, and I mentioned how awesome the Chris Ware feature was.

Well, here is that feature!!

There ya go!

Hope you enjoyed it!

If anyone else has any good comic-related YouTube suggestions, let me know!
